I just noticed I missed this pretty massive tidbit of information from @joinpeertube regarding the roadmap for #PeerTube

"…Official PeerTube mobile application (end of 2024)"

:amaze:

This has been a long-requested development from the PeerTube community, and something I hear from our #tilvids community all the time. What an exciting development from an amazing organization! 🙌

I've never stopped feeling angry about the NYT's story from last November which fearmongered heavily about puberty blockers and the supposed risks to bone health they might bring.

So it is with grim satisfaction that I can report on a new study, in JAMA Pediatricts, that suggests fears about bone density have been wildly overstated. #science #trans #journalism #mediabias #news

Depressing that "more than half of americans plan to get latest covid booster" is good news, but it's better than last round. Hopefully utterly idiotic partisan divide is starting to wane.

Just get your shots. Yeah even republicans. I fucking hate you but your corpses are fucking up our medical systems, stop it.

Let me rewrite the headline and the emphasis for you.

Original: "How the UAW strike could have ripple effects across the economy"

Rewrite: "How low wages for factory workers and extreme pay for executives have a rippling effect on the economy every day"

An Indonesian court has rejected lawsuits filed by two plantation companies operating in the Tanah Merah mega oil palm plantation project in the country’s Papua region.

The ruling means the companies are legally required to stop clearing forest in their concessions and preserve what remains.
